this has been out for a week or two, and i keep expecting somebody to post about it but it's always another draft 7.30 topic. anyways, my thoughts on the album are as follows (although i haven't listened to it since i first heard it, my memory may fail me).
fairly disappointing. it started out with the sound of a tuning orchestra...i felt it was pretty cheesy. the next two tracks were decent, but then it progressed (this may be out of order) into richard devine's signature style. except that richard devine really does it better himself. somewhere in the mix was a long, drawn out stringy piece that was pretty weak melody wise (all in all, before this release, i was all right with lex's melodies in general).
he seems to be getting better technically...but i don't really care. not for me.

Yeah i like this release but i feel its a bit weak melody wise compared to his old stuff. Eventho i love the more technical Otto Von Shirach'ish style i feel he is loosing some of what made his music special before .

Um, I haven't heard any other Lexaunculpts stuff, but this is a fantastic release imo. I did start a topic about it, but very few replied. The rythms are amazing, the soundscapes are beautiful and I was very impressed by the album.

I heard the clips at planet mu.... and wasn't as impressed as I thought I'd be. However, I really like "plus and minus miss c bug" by lexaunculpt and also their internet site visual/audio art. ..And I like their fun little metroid remix.

Lexaunculpt and Bit meddler seem like people with equal poplularity as the best of their rivals, but they hardly release anything?

I found it on soulseek one day. I just looked in my folder and it's gone.. I must have deleted it when I put it on an album. I bet you can email lexaunculpt and request it? I think they provide their email at their site...

I just looked up "lexaunculpt" alone... I doubt the title wouldn't have at least that name in it.

heh heh, I just really like the melody of that metroid tune. He added fairly minimal drums. However they added to it as opposed to subtracted I think.

Now, plus and minus miss c-bug, THAT is something really worth listening to.

by richard devine's signature style i was basically referring to lipswitch. i guess i forget he has other releases...anyways, he's got this defined style of making beats..he doesn't really play the melody game.
